Wonder if Barca would let Alexis go for a reasonable price next summer

It's time we spent our funds on preparing for life after 3-5-2
If he ends up repeating last season's form then he might go (or he should), but Martino might be patient with him first to see how he does under him. He had a pretty good game yesterday coming off the bench, got the assist & nearly scored one himself.

We are playing like shit, and our wingers don't attack and can't cross. Our defense has lost focus, Buffon is making too many mistakes, and Pirlo is slowly finding his way to a retirement home. Tevez and Vidal (who has been off color lately) can't do everything themsleves.

What is evident is that something needs to be done (and fucking fast), otherwise we will be playing in the Europa League come Feb. and chasing shadows in Serie A.

scary truth is, we don't have money, we may sooner than later need to sell either vidal or pogba at >50m to reinforce the aging players and add more quality.

3-5-2 is fine in the league as clearly we are superior quality make some difference. But in CL, where the quality is rather or less more matched this formation shows its limitation.
We need some AM . Look at the bench we cant even change formation. Thats why i said during the summer we need an AM to change formation when things doesnt work.

:agree:

Anyways, I'm so pissed we didn't sell Isla for 6M+.

What a joke of a player. He's on De Ceglie's level right now.

Thats the key problem. We start every game against a parked bus with one goal down because of low focus from our defenders. What used to be our main strength is suddenly a weakness. We seem to consistently gift a goal to each team we play since lazio and they are very happy to park the bus after that. If our defense regains focus it'll be a whole different story

We are better in attack than before, Pogba is more dangerous going forward than marchisio and definitely more dangerous from long range. If we defend like last season we'd be a significant improvement over last year.
